2.1.1 Making Sure DHCP Server Options are Correctly Configured
This section shows how to ensure that your enterprise's DHCP server options are correctly
configured and that the network environment is ready for deployment of IP phones.

Figure 2-2: DHCP Server Options
Make sure:
DHCP Option 43 (comprising 001-005 in the figure above) is correctly configured
(see Section 2.1.1.1 on page 22 below)
DHCP Option 120 is correctly configured (see Section 2.1.1.3 on page 22 below)
DHCP Option 42 is correctly configured (see Section 2.1.1.4 on page 22 below)
Correct configuration of these three is critically important. The other DHCP options shown in
